Great platform for virtual events

Excellent experience with outstanding tech support always offered swiftly. Friendly and accessible team who genuinely want to listen and help when needed.

PROS

This platform is so intuitive and easy to navigate. Stakeholders are getting weary of using multiple platforms for virtual events so its very useful to have a 'straightforward' package. Visually appealing and a good alternative to face to face events. Sensibly priced compared to other providers

CONS

A useful feature to add would be for it to be compulsory for students/alumni to have to add their education major - many just click 'other' which means the engagement data is not complete to feedback to employers/course directors. Another good feature would be for reminders to students to flash up on their profiles to remind them to upload a CV (which isn't compulsory to upload)

Reasons for switching to Highered

Because i-vent was over priced, over hyped and they did not value their customers - appalling customer care. Old technology and clunky processes. Dreadful organisation and incredible stressful to work with them.

Smooth Running Events

Our virtual events ran smoothly thanks to the Highered Talentpanel platform and team. We are so glad to have them in our corner.

PROS

- Easy to use - Friendly and effective customer service - Open to new ideas and new feature suggestions - Chat and video options - Linked to the student's profile on which they can upload resumés, and a lot of information - New features coming!

CONS

Not much! We have had security issues with some of our partners not being able to connect with their company's equipment, but that's not Highered's doing. We will deal with those partners separately in the future to warn them to use their own equipment. About everything else that is not perfect about the platform, the Highered Talentpanel team is open to suggestions and will look into implementing them for future events!

Reason for choosing Highered

The easy to use and implement, the video options and price.

IOM's experience with Highered has only been positive

Very positive. We want to continue liaising so that we can target and engage students we want at IOM. The team at Highered have been highly responsive and adaptive to our needs, which is amazing. Their features and functions as well as communications of these are really good. Something that we can really learn from. I think live events too and the moderator are so professional. We hope more UN organizations that target specific groups, like us, try using Highered. The reports and training sessions they provide are always so comprehensive and informative.

PROS

It has so many new and innovative technical features that makes it easy for us as Recruiters and candidates. The Highered team are also great. They are really supportive and always try their best to adapt to IOM's needs.

CONS

We are still trying to capture nationalities perfectly, referring to the nationalities of students who participated in the fair so that we can really source and target the group we would like. But we can see a solution is coming very soon :)

Reason for choosing Highered

The willingness to innovate and adapt to our needs. We have very unique needs that is sometimes difficult to cater to, but Highered were very flexible and supportive. We cannot thank them enough. They are very quick and most importantly, the communication is clear and what they can (and cannot do). It is really helpful for us.

Reasons for switching to Highered

We thought the coordination with the team was not good enough and very confusing. The features they provided were not up to par with what we wanted.
